I didn't mean it was loose in referance to its ablity to drop your 60ft/It will help that for sure.All i ment in terms of loose was that it drove me crazy by giving it just a little bit of gas and having the rpms sit at 2grand or more until i stoped accerlating.It drove me nuts to have it at 2k or more the whole time.With my new stall it doesnt do that all.Its a much tighter stall in terms of streetablity.
If yours isn't like that then i hate you lol.
But mine was and it just mad me mad after a single day.

I didn't mean it was loose in referance to its ablity to cut your 60ft times down.I meant it was loose as for as driveablity went.
It drove me crazy to give it just a little bit of gas and the rpms sit at 2k or higher until i stop accelarating.Just damn annoying to me sitting on 2 grand the whole time.
With my new stall it doesn't do that all.It drives like a stock vertor until i drop the hammer which i love.
If yours is tight in normal driving conditions and not real loose like mine was...then i hate you lol.
But really mine drove me nuts and just made me mad after a single day it was so loose under normal throttle.

Mine acted like this for the first day of having it. After about a day or two, it has actually tighted up a little. Much better now than the first day.
I do wish it was a little tighter though under low throttle.

Damnit...thought I had my mind made up on a TB convertor now everybody is shootin em down due to driveabilty issues, which was a major concern of mine. For the longest time everybody has said it feels just like a stock convertor now all of the sudden low speed driveability sucks? Whats up w/ that? Is this due to the STR of the TB convertor?

the trailblazer is VERY streetable. this is the one you want if driveability is on the top of your list. i pull a trailer 5 days a week during the summer and know the trailblazer stall is up to the job.
